An Air India flight AI379 from Phuket in Thailand to India’s capital New Delhi received an onboard bomb threat
An Air India flight AI379 from Phuket in Thailand to India’s capital New Delhi received an onboard bomb threat on Friday (June 13) and made an emergency landing on the island, reported news agency Reuters.
All 156 passengers on flight AI379 had been escorted from the plane, in line with emergency plans, an official of Thailand Airport said.
The aircraft took off from Phuket airport at 9:30 AM on Friday for New Delhi, but made a wide loop around the Andaman Sea and landed back on the southern Thai island, according to flight tracker Flightradar24.
It was later reported that authorities have not found any bomb inside the flight after the preliminary search.
Thai airport officials are now questioning the passenger who found the bomb threat note on the aircraft.
This comes a day after an Air India plane bound to London crashed in Gujarat’s Ahmedabad, killing 241 people onboard and several others.
